Recipe Tips

To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should read 165°F when inserted into the thickest part of the chicken. If you prefer a crispy skin, you can remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking to allow the chicken skin to brown. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
